Known folders and excluding folders from OneDrive sync

[yjgygyufgvfghfh]

Hi guys, I'm trying to omit a few folders from OneDrive sync but am getting the error: "can't stop syncing folder the folder you tried to unselect contains the windows documents folder."

The only reason I can see for that is the Desktop and Pictures folders are nested under the main Documents folder. IE:

Documents: C:\Users\user\OneDrive

Desktop: C:\Users\user\OneDrive\Desktop

Music: C:\Users\user\OneDrive\Music

I've got folder redirection configured via a GPO to follow the user profile location, is that not the way I should be doing it?

Worried about making a change at this stage as I've got about 2300 users set up in the way above.

With OneDrive, it's a good practice to avoid nesting common folders like Desktop and Pictures within Documents. Regarding GPO, make sure it's not conflicting with OneDrive settings. You might want to test changes on a smaller scale first or reach out to your IT support. Safety first with 2300 users!

Good luck!
